Gargano says that "Cena has a special place in my heart. People give him a hard time, but he has a special place in my heart. I was in the hallway after my match on Superstars with WWE. Cena walked up to me and slapped me in the back and said 'Great job, kid. Keep it up. WWE should sign you right now. People think that I have pull in this company, but I don't. WWE should sign you right now."
